Data Capture
Scanning
The DS9908 has a built-in, light-weight stand to easily accommodate both hands-free (presentation) and hand-held scanning.
Scanning features include hand-held touch zones which are touch sensitive areas that switch the scanner between hand-held and hands-free modes (see
Parts of the Scanner on page 30 ). To enable the touch zones, fingers must
be placed in the zone above the finger ridges on both sides of the scanner. See
for proper finger placement.
NOTE : SR and DL models emit red illumination and a red aiming dot.
HD and HL models emit white illumination and green aiming dot.
Hands-free Scanning
The scanner is in hands-free (presentation) mode when it sits on a counter top, or when it is mounted on a wall using the multi-mount bracket. In this mode, the scanner operates in continuous (constant-on) mode, where it automatically decodes a barcode presented in its field of view.
In hands-free mode the LED indicator turns solid green. An aiming dot may appear.
Figure 10 Scanning in Hands-free Mode
Hand-held Scanning
When lifted off the counter or removed from the multi-mount bracket, the scanner operates in standard trigger mode. Aim the scanner at a barcode and pull the trigger to decode.
In hand-held mode the LED indicator turns off. An aiming dot may appear.

Data Capture
Electronic Article Surveillance (EAS)
NOTE : EAS is available only on scanner models that support Checkpoint EAS.
Some scanner configurations include an integrated Electronic Article Surveillance (EAS) antenna.
The scanner's integrated EAS deactivation antenna requires an EAS host cable. This Y-cable connects to the scanner's host port at one end, and splits to the host and the EAS system at the other end.
Installing
Checkpoint EAS Model Compatibility
The scanner is intended for use with Checkpoint CP-VII, CP-IX, and CP-XI systems. It does not support CP-IV and other low-power receiver-based EAS deactivation systems.
Considerations
The Checkpoint CP-VII system generates a periodic burst of electromagnetic energy that deactivates EAS tags brought near the scanner. To avoid interference with the scanner’s operation, take the following precautions when installing the EAS system:
• Position the EAS antenna box as far as possible from the scanner (at least 6 in. / 15.24 cm.)
• Position the EAS antenna, EAS antenna box, EAS control cable, and EAS controller box as far as possible from the scanner’s host and power cables.
EAS range is as dependent on the Checkpoint system (which is calibrated onsite) as it is on the scanner.
Therefore, we cannot provide estimated ranges, however these are some of the factors that contribute to EAS range:
• Antenna – Length, gauge, number of turns, placement in the scanner.
• Type of Checkpoint EAS system used (ie. CP-VII, CP-IX, and CP-XI).
• Length of wire connecting antenna to (Checkpoint) EAS (site/installation dependent)
• Settings done within Checkpoint system (site/installation dependent).
Checkpoint Contact Information
Contact your local Checkpoint representative to install the EAS cable to the Checkpoint Deactivation System.

User Preferences &
Miscellaneous Options
Introduction
You can program the scanner to perform various functions, or activate different features. This chapter describes user preference features and provides programming barcodes for selecting these features.
The scanner ships with the settings shown in
for all defaults). If the default values suit requirements, programming is not necessary.
Setting Parameters
To set feature values, scan a single barcode or a short barcode sequence. The settings are stored in non-volatile memory and are preserved even when the scanner powers down.
NOTE : Most computer monitors allow scanning barcodes directly on the screen. When scanning from the screen, be sure to set the document magnification to a level where you can see the barcode clearly, and bars and/or spaces do not merge.
If not using the default host, select the host type (see each host chapter for specific host information) after the power-up beeps sound. This is only necessary upon the first power-up when connected to a new host.
To return all features to default values, see menus, asterisks indicate (
*
) default values.
Default Parameters on page 59 . Throughout the programming barcode

*
Enable Parameter
(1) Feature/option
Option value
Scanning Sequence Examples
In most cases, scanning one barcode sets the parameter value. For example, to set the speaker tone to high, scan the High Frequency
(beep tone) barcode listed under Beep Tone on page 62 . The scanner issues a fast warble
beep and the LED turns green, signifying a successful parameter entry.
Other parameters require scanning several barcodes. See the parameter descriptions for this procedure.
56
User Preferences & Miscellaneous Options
Errors While Scanning
Unless otherwise specified, to correct an error during a scanning sequence, just re-scan the correct parameter.
User Preferences/Miscellaneous Options Parameter Defaults
Table 8 lists defaults for user preferences parameters. Change these values in one of two ways:
• Scan the appropriate barcodes in this chapter. The new value replaces the standard default value in memory. To recall default parameter values, see
.
• Configure the scanner using the 123Scan
configuration program. See 123Scan and Software Tools .

Hands-Free Decode Session Timeout
Parameter # 400
SSI # F0 90
This parameter is the hands-free compliment to the Decode Session Timeout . It configures the minimum and maximum decode processing time during a hands-free scan attempt. It only applies to the hands-free trigger mode or when a scanner is place in the gooseneck stand. The default is 15; range = 2 - 255.
The minimum decode processing time is defined as the time in which the scanner stops decoding when an object is removed or left stationary in the imaging field of view.
The maximum decode processing time is defined as the time in which the scanner stops decoding when an object is left in or is moving in the field of view.
Both the maximum and minimum times are configured using a single setting. The relationship of this setting is as follows:
Setting Value
X < 25
1 Minimum Time
250 ms
X >= 25 X * 10 ms
1 Setting value must be three digits.
Maximum Time
2.5 Seconds
X * 100 ms
For example, a setting value of 100 results in the scanner turning off approximately 1 second after an object is removed from the field of view or 10 seconds while an object is in the field of view moving.
The default value of the setting is 15 which results in a minimum time of 250 ms and maximum time of 2.5 seconds.
Adjust this setting based on your requirements. For example, when doing PDF prioritization, this parameter should be set to a value where the maximum time is above the PDF prioritization timeout.

Parameter # 1752
SSI # F8h 06h D8h
securPharm implements the IFA and GS1 Coding System for the European pharmaceutical industry. securPharm code is used to prevent pharmaceutical counterfeiting.
When this feature is enabled, if a GS1 symbol is decoded and includes any aspects of the Application Identifier associated with the securPharm GS1 specifications, the entire GS1 symbol is processed as a securPharm symbol.
For this reason, it is expected that under certain circumstances, a GS1 barcodes that is a securPharm symbol may not be processed properly; if the GS1 symbol is not created as per the specification. The output cannot be guaranteed as valid.
Although the GS1-128 type and the GS1 DataBar family are not specifically indicated in the IFA specification, they are supported.
The securPharm output is in XML format and can include the product number, serial number, lot number, expiration and Date of Manufacturing. The XML tags can be arranged in any order. Tags that are not in the barcode are omitted. For example:
<content dfi=”value_dfi”>
<Daten_1>value_Daten_1</Daten_1>
<Daten_2>value_Daten_2</Daten_2>
<Daten_n>value_Daten_n</Daten_n>

Only the Symbol Native API (SNAPI) with Imaging interface supports image capture. See USB Device
Type on page 237 to enable this host.
The imager ships with the settings shown in Table 9 on page 98
(also see Parameter Defaults for all defaults). If
the default values suit requirements, programming is not necessary.
Setting Parameters
To set feature values, scan a single barcode or a short barcode sequence. The settings are stored in non-volatile memory and are preserved even when the imager powers down.
NOTE : Most computer monitors allow scanning barcodes directly on the screen. When scanning from the screen, be sure to set the document magnification to a level where you can see the barcode clearly, and bars and/or spaces do not merge.
To return all features to default values, scan the barcode menus, asterisks (
*
Set Factory Defaults on page 59
) indicate default values.

Scanning Sequence Examples
In most cases scanning one barcode sets the parameter value. For example, to disable image capture illumination, scan the Disable Image Capture Illumination barcode under
Image Capture Illumination on page 101
. The imager issues a fast warble beep and the LED turns green, signifying a successful parameter entry.
Other parameters require scanning several barcodes. See the parameter descriptions for this procedure.
Errors While Scanning
Unless otherwise specified, to correct an error during a scanning sequence, just re-scan the correct parameter.
Image Capture Preferences Parameter Defaults

Image Capture Preferences
The parameters in this chapter control image capture characteristics.
Operational Modes
The imager has three modes of operation:
• Decode Mode
• Snapshot Mode
• Video Mode
Decode Mode
By default, when you press the trigger the imager attempts to locate and decode enabled barcodes within its field of view. The imager remains in this mode until it decodes a barcode or you release the trigger.
Snapshot Mode
Use Snapshot Mode to capture a high-quality image and transmit it to the host. Scan the Snapshot Mode barcode to temporarily enter this mode. While in this mode the imager blinks the green LED at one-second intervals to indicate it is not in standard operating (decode) mode.
In Snapshot Mode, the imager turns on its aiming pattern to highlight the area to capture in the image. The next trigger press instructs the imager to capture a high quality image and transmit it to the host. A short time may pass
(less than two seconds) between when the trigger is pressed and the image is captured as the imager adjusts to lighting conditions. Hold the imager steady until a single beep indicates that it captured the image.
If you do not press the trigger within the Snapshot Mode Timeout period, the imager returns to Decode Mode. Use
To disable the aiming pattern during Snapshot Mode, see
Snapshot Aiming Pattern on page 106
.
Snapshot Mode
Video Mode
In this mode the imager behaves as a video camera as long as you press the trigger. Release the trigger to return to Decode Mode. Scan this barcode to temporarily enter Video Capture Mode.

Fixed Exposure
Parameter # 567
SSI # F4h F1h 37h
Type: Word
Range: 5 to 30,000
This parameter configures the exposure used in manual mode for Snapshot mode.
Each integer value represents 100 s of exposure. The default value is 100 which results in an exposure setting of
10 ms.
To set the exposure, scan the Fixed Exposure barcode, and then scan four numeric barcodes from
representing the value. Leading zeros are required. For example, to set a Fixed Exposure value of 99, scan 0, 0, 9, 9.

Imager Preferences
Gain/Exposure Priority for Snapshot Mode
Parameter # 562
SSI # F1h 32h
This parameter alters the imager’s gain exposure priority when it acquires an image in Snapshot Mode while in autoexposure mode. Scan one of the following barcodes:
• Low Exposure Priority - The imager favors higher gain over exposure to capture an image, resulting in an image that is less susceptible to motion blur at the expense of noise artifacts. However, for most applications, the amount of noise is acceptable.
• Low Gain Priority - The imager favors longer exposure time rather than higher gain to capture an image, ensuring the image is less noisy and produces fewer artifacts during post processing activities like image enhancement (sharpening). This mode is recommended for fixed mount / fixed object image capture since the image acquired is susceptible to motion blur.
• Autodetect (default) - The imager automatically selects Gain Priority or Low Exposure Priority mode for
Snapshot Mode. If the imager is in a magnetic reed switch-enabled stand (or it is configured in Blink
Mode), it uses Low Gain Priority. Otherwise, it uses the Low Exposure Priority.

Snapshot Mode Timeout
Parameter # 323
SSI # F0h 43h
This parameter sets the amount of time the imager remains in Snapshot Mode. The imager exits Snapshot Mode when you press the trigger, or when the Snapshot Mode Timeout elapses. To set this timeout value, scan the Set
Snapshot Mode Timeout
barcode, and then scan a barcode from Numeric Barcodes . The default value is 0 which
represents 30 seconds; values increment by 30. For example, 0 = 30 seconds, 1 = 60 seconds,
2 = 90 seconds, etc. The maximum timeout value that can be set on the scanner is 9 = 300 seconds.
To quickly re-set the default timeout to 30 seconds, scan the 30 Seconds barcode.
If you scan No Timeout , the imager remains in Snapshot Mode until you press the trigger.

If you enabled
Image Cropping , set the pixel addresses from (0,0) to (1279 x 799)
to crop to.
Columns are numbered from 0 to 1279, rows from 0 to 799. Specify values for Top, Left, Bottom, and Right, where
Top and Bottom correspond to row pixel addresses, and Left and Right correspond to column pixel addresses. For example, for a 4 row x 8 column image in the extreme bottom-right section of the image, set the following values:
Top = 796, Bottom = 799, Left = 1272, Right = 1279
To set the pixel addresses, scan each of the following barcodes, and then scan four numeric barcodes from
representing the value. Leading zeros are required. For example, to crop the top pixel address to 3, scan 0, 0, 0, 3. The defaults are:

Symbologies
Introduction
You can program the scanner to perform various functions, or activate different features. This chapter describes symbology features and provides programming barcodes for selecting these features.
The scanner ships with the settings shown in Table 13 on page 124
for all defaults).
If the default values suit requirements, programming is not necessary.
Setting Parameters
To set feature values, scan a single barcode or a short barcode sequence. The settings are stored in non-volatile memory and are preserved even when the scanner powers down.
NOTE : Most computer monitors allow scanning barcodes directly on the screen. When scanning from the screen, be sure to set the document magnification to a level where you can see the barcode clearly, and bars and/or spaces do not merge.
If not using a USB cable, select a host type (see each host chapter for specific host information) after the power-up beeps sound. This is only necessary upon the first power-up when connected to a new host.
To return all features to default values, see menus, asterisks (
*
) indicate default values.

Symbologies
Scanning Sequence Examples
In most cases, scanning one barcode sets the parameter value. For example, to transmit barcode data without the
UPC-A check digit, scan the Do Not Transmit UPC-A Check Digit
barcode under Transmit UPC-A Check Digit on page 142
. The scanner issues a fast warble beep and the LED turns green, signifying a successful parameter entry.
Other parameters require scanning several barcodes. See the parameter descriptions for this procedure.
Errors While Scanning
Unless otherwise specified, to correct an error during a scanning sequence, just re-scan the correct parameter.
Symbology Parameter Defaults
lists defaults for all symbology parameters. Change these values in one of two ways:
• Scan the appropriate barcodes in this chapter. The new value replaces the standard default value in memory. To recall the default parameter values, see
.
• Configure the scanner using the 123Scan
configuration program. See 123Scan and Software Tools .

Supplementals are barcodes appended according to specific format conventions (e.g., UPC A+2, UPC E+2, EAN
13+2). The following options are available:
• Decode UPC/EAN/JAN with Supplementals Only - The scanner only decodes UPC/EAN/JAN symbols with supplemental characters, and ignores symbols without supplementals.
• Ignore UPC/EAN/JAN Supplementals - When presented with a UPC/EAN/JAN plus supplemental symbol, the scanner decodes UPC/EAN/JAN and ignores the supplemental characters.
• Autodiscriminate UPC/EAN/JAN with Supplementals - The scanner decodes UPC/EAN/JAN symbols with supplemental characters immediately. If the symbol does not have a supplemental, the scanner must decode the barcode the number of times set via
UPC/EAN/JAN Supplemental Redundancy on page 140
before transmitting its data to confirm that there is no supplemental.
Select one of the following Supplemental Mode options to immediately transmit EAN-13 barcodes starting with that prefix that have supplemental characters. If the symbol does not have a supplemental, the scanner
must decode the barcode the number of times set via UPC/EAN/JAN Supplemental Redundancy on page 140
before transmitting the data to confirm that there is no supplemental. The scanner transmits UPC/EAN/JAN barcodes that do not have that prefix immediately.

When enabling ISBT Concatenation or Autodiscriminate ISBT Concatenation set Code 128 security level to Level 2.
Select an option for concatenating pairs of ISBT code types:
• Enable ISBT Concatenation - There must be two ISBT codes in order for the scanner to decode and perform concatenation. The scanner does not decode single ISBT symbols. This is the default for HD/HL models.
• Disable ISBT Concatenation - The scanner does not concatenate pairs of ISBT codes it encounters. This is the default for SR/DL models.
• Autodiscriminate ISBT Concatenation - The scanner decodes and concatenates pairs of ISBT codes immediately. If only a single ISBT symbol is present, the scanner must decode the symbol the number of
times set via ISBT Concatenation Redundancy on page 155 before transmitting its data to confirm that
there is no additional ISBT symbol.
NOTE : For Autodiscriminate ISBT Concatenation to operate as expected when two barcodes are present, both ISBT barcodes must be in the field of view at the same time. This may be difficult to achieve in presentation mode.

Code 128 Security Level
Parameter # 751
SSI # F1h EFh
Code 128 barcodes are vulnerable to misdecodes, particularly when Code 128 Lengths is set to Any Length . The scanner offers four levels of decode security for Code 128 barcodes. There is an inverse relationship between security and scanner aggressiveness. Increasing the level of security can reduce scanning aggressiveness, so select only the level of security necessary.
• Code 128 Security Level 0 - The scanner operates in its most aggressive state, while providing sufficient security in decoding most in-spec barcodes.
• Code 128 Security Level 1 - This option eliminates most misdecodes while maintaining reasonable aggressiveness. This is the default.
• Code 128 Security Level 2 - This option applies greater barcode security requirements if Security Level
1 fails to eliminate misdecodes.
• Code 128 Security Level 3 - If you selected Security Level 2 , and misdecodes still occur, select this security level to apply the highest safety requirements.
NOTE : Selecting this option is an extreme measure against mis-decoding severely out-of-spec barcodes, and significantly impairs the decoding ability of the scanner. If this level of security is required, try to improve the quality of the barcodes.

Codabar Security Level
Parameter # 1776
SSI # F8h 06h F0h
The scanner offers four levels of decode security for Codabar barcodes. There is an inverse relationship between security and scanner aggressiveness. Increasing the level of security can reduce scanning aggressiveness, so select only the level of security necessary.
• Codabar Security Level 0: This setting allows the scanner to operate in its most aggressive state, while providing sufficient security in decoding most in-spec barcodes.
• Codabar Security Level 1: This default setting eliminates most misdecodes.
• Codabar Security Level 2: Select this option with greater barcode security requirements if Security
Level 1 fails to eliminate misdecodes.
• Codabar Security Level 3: If you selected Security Level 2 , and misdecodes still occur, select this security level to apply the highest safety requirements.
NOTE : Selecting this option is an extreme measure against mis-decoding severely out-of-spec barcodes, and significantly impairs the decoding ability of the scanner. If this level of security is required, try to improve the quality of the barcodes.

USB Interface
Introduction
This chapter describes how to set up the scanner with a USB host. The scanner connects directly to a USB host, or a powered USB hub, which powers it. No additional power supply is required.
The scanner ships with the settings shown in Table 14 on page 236
for all defaults).
If the default values suit requirements, programming is not necessary.
Setting Parameters
To set feature values, scan a single barcode or a short barcode sequence. The settings are stored in non-volatile memory and are preserved even when the scanner powers down.
NOTE : Most computer monitors allow scanning barcodes directly on the screen. When scanning from the screen, be sure to set the document magnification to a level where you can see the barcode clearly, and bars and/or spaces do not merge.
To return all features to default values, scan barcode menus, asterisks (
*
Set Factory Defaults on page 59
) indicate default values.

Feature/option
Scanning Sequence Examples
In most cases scanning one barcode sets the parameter value. For example, to set the USB keystroke delay to medium, scan the Medium Delay (20 msec) barcode under
USB Keystroke Delay on page 240
. The scanner issues a fast warble beep and the LED turns green, signifying a successful parameter entry.
Other parameters require scanning several barcodes. See the parameter descriptions for this procedure.
Errors While Scanning
Unless otherwise specified, to correct an error during a scanning sequence, just re-scan the correct parameter.

SSI Interface
Introduction
This chapter describes the system requirements of the Simple Serial Interface (SSI), which provides a communications link between Zebra decoders (e.g., scan engines, slot scanners, hand-held scanners, two-dimensional scanners, Hands-free scanners, and RF base stations) and a serial host. It provides the means for the host to control the decoder or scanner.
Communication
All communication between the scanner and host occurs over the hardware interface lines using the SSI protocol.
Refer to the Simple Serial Interface Programmer’s Guide, p/n 72E-40451-xx, for more information on SSI.
The host and the scanner exchange messages in packets. A packet is a collection of bytes framed by the proper
SSI protocol formatting bytes. The maximum number of bytes per packet that the SSI protocol allows for any transaction is 257 (255 bytes + 2 byte checksum).
Depending on the configuration, the scanner can send decode data as ASCII data (unpacketed), or as part of a larger message (packeted).
SSI performs the following functions for the host device:
• Maintains a bi-directional interface with the scanner
• Allows the host to send commands that control the scanner
• Passes data from the scanner to a host device in SSI packet format or straight decode message.
The SSI environment consists of a scanner, a serial cable which attaches to the host device, and if required, a power supply.
SSI transmits all decode data including special formatting (e.g., AIM ID). Parameter settings can control the format of the transmitted data.
The scanner can also send parameter information, product identification information, or event codes to the host.
All commands sent between the scanner and host must use the format described in the SSI Message Formats section.
describes the required sequence of messages in specific cases.
251

SSI Commands
lists all the SSI opcodes the scanner supports. The host transmits opcodes designated type H. The scanner (decoder) transmits type D opcodes, and either can transmit Host/Decoder (H/D) types.

SSI Interface
SSI Transactions
General Data Transactions
ACK/NAK Handshaking
If you enable ACK/NAK handshaking (the default), all packeted messages must have a CMD_ACK or CMD_NAK response, unless the command description states otherwise. Zebra recommends leaving this handshaking enabled to provide feedback to the host. Raw decode data and WAKEUP do not use ACK/NAK handshaking since they are not packeted data.
Following is an example of a problem which can occur if you disable ACK/NAK handshaking:
• The host sends a PARAM_SEND message to the scanner to change the baud rate from 9600 to 19200.
• The scanner cannot interpret the message.
• The scanner does not implement the change the host requested.
• The host assumes that the parameter change occurred and acts accordingly.
• Communication is lost because the change did not occur on both sides.
If you enable ACK/NAK handshaking, the following occurs:
• The host sends a PARAM_SEND message.
• The scanner cannot interpret the message.
• The scanner CMD_NAKs the message.
• The host resends the message.
• The scanner receives the message successfully, responds with CMD_ACK, and implements parameter changes.
253
SSI Interface
Decoded Data Transmission
The
parameter controls how decode data is sent to the host. Set this parameter to send the data in a DECODE_DATA packet. Clear this parameter to transmit the data as raw ASCII data.
NOTE : When transmitting decode data as raw ASCII data, ACK/NAK handshaking does not apply regardless of the state of the ACK/NAK handshaking parameter.
ACK/NAK Enabled and Packeted Data
The scanner sends a DECODE_DATA message after a successful decode. The scanner waits for a programmable timeout for a CMD_ACK response. If it does not receive the response, the scanner tries to send two more times before issuing a host transmission error. If the scanner receives a CMD_NAK from the host, it may attempt a retry depending on the cause field of the CMD_NAK message.

Communication Summary
RTS/CTS Lines
All communication must use RTS/CTS handshaking as described in the Simple Serial Interface Programmer’s
Guide, p/n 72E-40451-xx. If bypassing hardware handshaking, the host must send the WAKEUP command before all other communication or the first byte of a message can be lost during the scanner wakeup sequence. Zebra recommends not bypassing RTS/CTS hardware handshaking.
ACK/NAK Option
ACK/NAK handshaking is enabled by default and Zebra recommends leaving it enabled. Disabling this can cause communication problems, as handshaking is the only acknowledgment that a message was received correctly.
ACK/NAK is not used with unpacketed decode data regardless of whether it is enabled.
Number of Data Bits
All communication with the scanner must use 8-bit data.
255
SSI Interface
Serial Response Timeout
The
parameter determines how long to wait for a handshaking response before trying again or aborting further attempts. Set the same value for both the host and scanner.
NOTE :
You can temporarily change the Host Serial Response Timeout when the host takes longer to process
an ACK or longer data string. Zebra does not recommend frequent permanent changes due to limited write cycles of non-volatile memory.
Retries
The host resends data twice after the initial send if the scanner does not respond with an ACK or NAK (if ACK/NAK handshaking is enabled), or response data (e.g., PARAM_SEND, REPLY_REVISION). If the scanner replies with a
NAK RESEND, the host resends the data. All resent messages must have the resend bit set in the Status byte.
The scanner resends data two times after the initial send if the host fails to reply with an ACK or NAK (if ACK/NAK handshaking is enabled).
Baud Rate, Stop Bits, Parity, Response Timeout, ACK/NAK Handshaking
If you use PARAM_SEND to change these serial parameters, the ACK response to the PARAM_SEND uses the previous values for these parameters. The new values then take effect for the next transaction.
Errors
The scanner issues a communication error when:
• The CTS line is asserted when the scanner tries to transmit, and is still asserted on each of two successive retries
• The scanner does not receive an ACK or NAK after initial transmit and two resends.
SSI Communication Notes
• When not using hardware handshaking, space messages sufficiently apart. The host must not communicate with the scanner if the scanner is transmitting.
• When using hardware handshaking, frame each message properly with handshaking signals. Do not try to send two commands within the same handshaking frame.
• There is a permanent/temporary bit in the PARAM_SEND message. Removing power from the scanner discards temporary changes. Permanent changes are written to non-volatile memory. Frequent changes shorten the life of the non-volatile memory.

SSI Interface
Encapsulation of RSM Commands/Responses over SSI
The SSI protocol allows the host to send a command that is variable in length up to 255 bytes. Although there is a provision in the protocol to multi-packet commands from the host, the scanner does not support this. The host must fragment packets using the provisions in the RSM protocol.

The following example illustrates how to retrieve diagnostic information (Diagnostic Testing and Reporting
(Attribute #10061) decimal) from the scanner using encapsulation of RSM commands over SSI. Before sending an
RSM command, the host must send the RSM Get Packet Size command to query the packet size supported by the device.

Setting Parameters
This section describes how to set up the scanner with an SSI host. When using SSI, program the scanner via barcode menu or SSI hosts commands.
The scanner ships with the settings shown in Table 17 on page 261
for all defaults).
If the default values suit requirements, programming is not necessary.
To set feature values, scan a single barcode or a short barcode sequence. The settings are stored in non-volatile memory and are preserved even when the scanner powers down.
NOTE : Most computer monitors allow scanning barcodes directly on the screen. When scanning from the screen, be sure to set the document magnification to a level where you can see the barcode clearly, and bars and/or spaces do not merge.
To return all features to default values, scan barcode menus, asterisks (
*
Set Factory Defaults on page 59
) indicate default values.

Scanning Sequence Examples
In most cases scanning one barcode sets the parameter value. For example, to set the baud rate to 19,200, scan the Baud Rate 19,200
barcode under Baud Rate on page 262 . The scanner issues a fast warble beep and the
LED turns green, signifying a successful parameter entry.
Other parameters require scanning several barcodes. See the parameter descriptions for this procedure.
Errors While Scanning
Unless otherwise specified, to correct an error during a scanning sequence, just re-scan the correct parameter.
260
SSI Interface
Simple Serial Interface Parameter Defaults
lists defaults for SSI host parameters. Change these values in one of two ways:
• Scan the appropriate barcodes in this chapter. The new value replaces the standard default value in memory. To recall default parameter values, see
.
• Download data through the device’s serial port using SSI. Hexadecimal parameter numbers appear in this chapter below the parameter title, and option values appear in parenthesis beneath the accompanying barcodes. Refer to the Simple Serial Interface (SSI) Programmer’s Guide for detailed instructions for changing parameters using this method.
NOTE :
SSI interprets Prefix, Suffix1, and Suffix2 values listed in ASCII Character Set on page 451
differently than other interfaces. SSI does not recognize key categories, only the 3-digit decimal value. The default value of 7013 is interpreted as CR only.
NOTE : See
Parameter Defaults for all user preference, host, symbology, and miscellaneous default
parameters.

SSI Interface
Software Handshaking
Parameter # 159
SSI # 9Fh
This parameter offers control of data transmission in addition to the control hardware handshaking offers.
Hardware handshaking is always enabled; you cannot disable it.
Options:
• Disable ACK/NAK Handshaking - The scanner neither generates nor expects ACK/NAK handshaking packets.
• Enable ACK/NAK Handshaking - After transmitting data, the scanner expects either an ACK or NAK response from the host. The scanner also ACKs or NAKs messages from the host.
The scanner waits up to the programmable Host Serial Response Timeout
to receive an ACK or NAK. If the scanner does not get a response in this time, it resends its data up to two times before discarding the data and declaring a transmission error.

SSI Interface
Host RTS Line State
Parameter # 154
SSI # 9Ah
Scan one of the following barcodes to set the expected idle state of the Serial Host RTS line.
The SSI interface is used with host applications which also implement the SSI protocol. However, you can use the scanner in a "scan-and-transmit" mode to communicate with any standard serial communication software on a host
PC (see Decode Data Packet Format on page 268
). If transmission errors occur in this mode, the host PC may be asserting hardware handshaking lines which interfere with the SSI protocol. Scan the High barcode to address this problem.

Multipacket Option
Parameter # 334
SSI # F0h 4Eh
Scan one of the following barcodes to control ACK/NAK handshaking for multi-packet transmissions:
• Multi-Packet Option 1 - The host sends an ACK/NAK for each data packet during a multi-packet transmission.
• Multi-Packet Option 2 - The scanner sends data packets continuously, with no ACK/NAK handshaking to pace the transmission. The host, if overrun, can use hardware handshaking to temporarily delay scanner transmissions. At the end of transmission, the scanner waits for a CMD_ACK or CMD_NAK.
• Multi-Packet Option 3 - This is the same as option 2 with the addition of a programmable interpacket delay. See

RS-232 Interface
Introduction
This chapter describes how to set up the scanner with an RS-232 host. The scanner uses the RS-232 interface to connect to point-of-sale devices, host computers, or other devices with an available RS-232 port (e.g., com port) .
The scanner ships with the settings shown in Table 19 on page 277
for all defaults).
If the default values suit requirements, programming is not necessary.
If your host does not appear in
Table 20 , refer to the documentation for the host device to set communication
parameters to match the host.
NOTE : The scanner uses TTL RS-232 signal levels, which interface with most system architectures. For system architectures requiring RS-232C signal levels, Zebra offers different cables providing TTL-to-RS-232C conversion. Contact support for more information.
Setting Parameters
To set feature values, scan a single barcode or a short barcode sequence. The settings are stored in non-volatile memory and are preserved even when the scanner powers down.
NOTE : Most computer monitors allow scanning barcodes directly on the screen. When scanning from the screen, be sure to set the document magnification to a level where you can see the barcode clearly, and bars and/or spaces do not merge.
To return all features to default values, scan barcode menus, asterisks (

In most cases scanning one barcode sets the parameter value. For example, to set the baud rate to 19,200, scan the Baud Rate 19,200
barcode under Baud Rate on page 282 . The scanner issues a fast warble beep and the
LED turns green, signifying a successful parameter entry.
Other parameters require scanning several barcodes. See the parameter descriptions for this procedure.
Errors While Scanning
Unless otherwise specified, to correct an error during a scanning sequence, just re-scan the correct parameter.
Connecting an RS-232 Interface
Connect the scanner directly to the host computer.

Hardware Handshaking
The data interface consists of an RS-232 port designed to operate either with or without the hardware handshaking lines Request to Send (RTS) and Clear to Send (CTS).
If hardware handshaking and software handshaking are both enabled, hardware handshaking takes precedence.
NOTE : The DTR signal is jumpered to the active state.
Options:
• None - This disables hardware handshaking and transmits scan data as it becomes available.
• Standard RTS/CTS - This sets standard RTS/CTS hardware handshaking and transmits scanned data according to the following sequence: a.
The scanner reads the CTS line for activity:
•
Timeout on page 289 for the host to assert CTS, and then transmits data when asserted. If, after the
timeout, the CTS line is not asserted, the scanner sounds a transmit error and discards the data.
• If CTS is asserted, the scanner waits up to
for the host to de-assert
CTS. If after this timeout the CTS line is still asserted, the scanner sounds a transmit error and discards the scanned data.
b.
c.
The scanner de-asserts RTS after sending the last character of data.
The host negates CTS. The scanner checks for a de-asserted CTS upon the next data transmission.
During data transmission, if CTS is deasserted for more than 50 ms between characters, the scanner sounds a transmit error and discards the data. The data must be re-scanned.
• RTS/CTS Option 1 - The scanner asserts RTS before transmitting and ignores the state of CTS. The scanner de-asserts RTS when transmission completes.
• RTS/CTS Option 2 - RTS is always high or low (user-programmed logic level). However, the scanner waits for the host to assert CTS before transmitting data. If CTS is not asserted within the
if CTS is deasserted for more than 50 ms between characters, the scanner sounds a transmit error and discards the data.
• RTS/CTS Option 3 - This transmits scanned data according to the following sequence: d.
The scanner asserts RTS before data transmission, regardless of the state of CTS. e.
f.
g.
The scanner waits up to the Host Serial Response Timeout
for the host to assert CTS, and then transmits data when asserted. If, after the timeout, the CTS line is not asserted, the scanner sounds a transmit error and discards the data.
The scanner de-asserts RTS after sending the last character of data.
The host negates CTS. The scanner checks for a de-asserted CTS upon the next data transmission.
During data transmission, if CTS is deasserted for more than 50 ms between characters, the scanner sounds a transmit error and discards the data. The data must be re-scanned.

Software Handshaking
This parameter offers control of data transmission in addition to, or instead of, that offered by hardware handshaking. If software handshaking and hardware handshaking are both enabled, hardware handshaking takes precedence.
Options:
• None - This transmits data immediately. The scanner expects no response from the host.
• ACK/NAK - After transmitting data, the scanner waits for an ACK or NAK response from the host. If it receives a NAK, the scanner transmits the data again and waits for an ACK or NAK. After three unsuccessful attempts to send data after receiving NAKs, the scanner sounds a transmit error and discards the data.
The scanner waits up to the programmable Host Serial Response Timeout
to receive an ACK or NAK. If the scanner does not get a response in this time, it sounds a transmit error and discards the data. There are no reattempts.
• ENQ - The scanner waits for an ENQ character from the host before transmitting data. If it does not receive an ENQ within the
, the scanner sounds a transmit error and discards the data. The host must transmit an ENQ character at least every
Host Serial Response Timeout to prevent
transmission errors.
• ACK/NAK with ENQ - This combines the two previous options. An additional ENQ is not required to re-transmit data due to a NAK from the host.
• XON/XOFF - An XOFF character stops data transmission until the scanner receives an XON character.
There are two situations for XON/XOFF:
• The scanner receives an XOFF before it has data to send. When the scanner has data, it waits up to the
for an XON character before transmitting. If it does not receive the
XON within this time, the scanner sounds a transmit error and discards the data.
• The scanner receives an XOFF during data transmission and stops transmission after sending the current byte. When the scanner receives an XON character, it sends the rest of the data. The scanner waits indefinitely for the XON.

Keyboard Wedge Interface
Introduction
This chapter describes how to set up a keyboard wedge interface with the scanner. The scanner connects between the keyboard and host computer and translates barcode data into keystrokes, which the host accepts as if they originated from the keyboard. This mode adds barcode reading functionality to a system designed for manual keyboard input. Keyboard keystrokes are simply passed through.
The scanner ships with the settings shown in Table 23 on page 301
for all defaults).
If the default values suit requirements, programming is not necessary.
Setting Parameters
To set feature values, scan a single barcode or a short barcode sequence. The settings are stored in non-volatile memory and are preserved even when the scanner powers down.
NOTE : Most computer monitors allow scanning barcodes directly on the screen. When scanning from the screen, be sure to set the document magnification to a level where you can see the barcode clearly, and bars and/or spaces do not merge.

OCR Programming
Introduction
This chapter describes how to set up the scanner for OCR programming. The scanner can read 6 to 60 point OCR typeface. It supports font types OCR-A, OCR-B, MICR E13B, and US Currency Serial Number.
OCR is not as secure as a barcode. To decrease OCR misdecodes and speed OCR reading, set an accurate OCR template and character subset, and use a check digit.
All OCR fonts are disabled by default. Enabling OCR could slow barcode decoding. You can enable OCR-A and
OCR-B at the same time, but not other combined font types.
Setting Parameters
To set feature values, scan a single barcode or a short barcode sequence. The settings are stored in non-volatile memory and are preserved even when the imager powers down.
NOTE : Most computer monitors allow scanning barcodes directly on the screen. When scanning from the screen, be sure to set the document magnification to a level where you can see the barcode clearly, and bars and/or spaces do not merge.
To return all features to default values, scan the barcode menus, asterisks (

OCR Quiet Zone
Parameter # 695
SSI # F1h B7h
This option sets the OCR quiet zone. The scanner stops scanning a field when it detects a sufficiently wide blank space. The width of this space is defined by the End of Field option. Used with parsers that tolerate slanted characters, the End of Field count is approximately a count of 8 for a character width. For example, if set to 15, then two character widths are an end of line indicator for the parser. Larger end of field numbers require bigger quiet zones at each end of text line.
To set a quiet zone, scan the following barcode, then scan a two-digit number using the numeric keypad in
. The range of the quiet zone is 20 - 99 and the default is 50, indicating a six character width quiet zone.

This is the health industry module 43 check digit standard. The check digit is the modulus 43 sum of all the character values in a given message, and is printed as the last character in a given message.
Example:
Supplier Labeling Data Structure: + A 1 2 3 B J C 5 D 6 E 7 1
Sum of values: 41+10+1+2+3+11+19+12+5+13+6+14+7+1 = 145
Divide 145 by 43. The quotient is 3 with a remainder of 16. The check digit is the character corresponding to the value of the remainder (see
Table 25 ), which in this example is 16, or
G . The complete Supplier Labeling Data

SSI # F8h 06h EAh
This option adjusts the number of times to decode an OCR text string before transmission. There are three levels of OCR decode redundancy. There is an inverse relationship between the redundancy level and OCR decoding aggressiveness. Increasing the level of the redundancy can reduce OCR scanning aggressiveness, so select only the level of redundancy necessary.
• OCR Redundancy Level 1 : This default setting allows the scanner to operate in its most aggressive state while providing sufficient accuracy in decoding most in-spec OCR text strings.
• OCR Redundancy Level 2 : This setting eliminates most misdecodes while maintaining reasonable aggressiveness.
• OCR Redundancy Level 3 : Select this option with greater redundancy requirements if OCR Redundancy
Level 2 fails to eliminate misdecodes.

Introduction
Intelligent Document Capture (IDC) is Zebra advanced image processing firmware for select imager based scanners. This chapter describes the IDC functionality, provides parameter barcodes to control IDC features, and includes a quick start procedure.

Barcode Acceptance Test
Upon decoding a barcode, the scanner checks that the barcode fits the description of a barcode that anchors or links to an IDC form. To be accepted as an IDC barcode:
• The symbology must be enabled for decode, and also enabled via
. The IDC firmware allows enabling between zero and eight symbologies simultaneously:
Code 128, Code 39, Interleaved 2 of 5, Discrete 2 of 5, Codabar, PDF417, Data Matrix, and EAN-128.
• The decoded data must satisfy the values set in the
Length parameters. To disable either of these checks, set the value to zero.
If the barcode does not satisfy both requirements, it is sent as a normal (non-IDC) decode.
An IDC barcode is required when
IDC Operating Mode on page 345 is set to
Anchored or Linked .
Free-Form operating mode does not require a barcode, but transmits decoded data if one is found and satisfies the requirements. If no barcode is decoded, the document capture process starts but may require specifying a non-zero value for the

Intelligent Document Capture (Hand-held Mode Only)
Capture Region Determination
After accepting an IDC barcode, the firmware establishes the region to capture as an image. The method used depends on the setting of the
IDC Operating Mode as follows.
The IDC firmware emits a single low beep after successfully capturing a region. The scanner is then no longer capturing images and can be moved without disturbing the IDC output. Be sure to hold the trigger button until the decode beep, otherwise the IDC process may be aborted.
IDC Operating Mode = Anchored
A coordinate system is built based on the barcode in its rectified (de-skewed) form. The origin is the center of the barcode, and the x-axis is set toward the right, from the barcode's point of view. The unit module width of the barcode is the unit for x. Similarly, the y-axis is set toward the up direction. The unit for the y-axis is specified via
to zero to automatically calculate the aspect ratio. The barcode can be of different sizes for the same form, as long as the center of the barcode is the same when the barcode's length changes.
From this coordinate system, the IDC area is determined using four parameters: offsets in x and y (
,
IDC Y Coordinate ) to the region's top-left corner, and width and height ( IDC Width
).
If the capture area is relatively large as compared to the barcode area, the calculation to obtain the capture area is prone to significant errors. A recommended solution is to enclose the form with a single black-lined rectangular border (a box), which is not in contact with any other line on the outside of the form (although it can be connected

unit module is scaled to two pixels).
The
parameter controls the maximum rotation any edge of the form can have in relation to the scanner's horizontal or vertical axis.
IDC Operating Mode = Free-Form or Linked
The document capture region is a rectangular piece of paper, or a portion of it enclosed by a rectangular border. In either case, all four sides of the capture region must be completely within the scanner's field-of-view, and there must be sufficient contrast at the border of the capture region. For example, if a piece of white paper contains the document to capture, it must be put in front of a dark background.
By default, the scanner captures the largest rectangular region within the field-of-view. To specify a particular border type, use the
The region must contain at least 10% of the field-of-view in two dimensions.
If an IDC barcode is decoded, IDC uses its location to start the search for the capture region. Otherwise, it searches the capture region from the center of the field-of-view. IDC also uses the orientation of a decoded IDC barcode to orient the output image.
342
Intelligent Document Capture (Hand-held Mode Only)
Image Post Processing
After determining the document capture region, the firmware de-skews and re-samples the region as follows.
Enabling IDC Captured Image Brighten
calls normalization, which makes the brightness of the image uniform, and enhances contrast as a large percent of background pixels is made completely white (a smaller percent of pixels is made completely black if the firmware determines there is no danger of enhancing the contrast of a very bland area). Enabling
enhances the sharpness of the image.
IDC re-samples the image about one output pixel per input pixel for Free-Form or Linked modes and two pixels-per-module in Anchored mode.
, and
Note that it may take several seconds for post processing to complete, depending on the size of the captured region, the options enabled, and the scanner model.
Data Transmission
After processing the captured image, IDC assembles the image with the decoded barcode data (if applicable) into an ISO/IEC 15434 style packet and transmits it to the host. The scanner issues the standard decode beep and the
trigger can be released. Be sure to set the USB Device Type on page 237
to Symbol Native API (SNAPI) with
Imaging Interface .
PC Application and Programming Support
For a sample application running on the Microsoft Windows operating system, contact your Zebra representative.
This application displays barcode data and/or captured images from Intelligent Document Capture enabled scanners and allows setting and reading IDC parameters. Complete source code and documentation are also provided for developing custom applications. The application includes documentation for the ISO/IEC 15434 format as used by the IDC firmware and C# code to process it.
Setting Parameters
This section describes the parameters controlling the IDC firmware and provides programming barcodes for setting them.
The scanner ships with the settings shown in Table 26 on page 344
for all defaults).
If the default values suit requirements, programming is not necessary.
To set feature values, scan a single barcode or a short barcode sequence. The settings are stored in non-volatile memory and are preserved even when the imager powers down.
NOTE : Most computer monitors allow scanning barcodes directly on the screen. When scanning from the screen, be sure to set the document magnification to a level where you can see the barcode clearly, and bars and/or spaces do not merge.

Scanning Sequence Examples
In most cases scanning one barcode sets the parameter value. For example, to set the document capture file format to BMP, scan the BMP
barcode under IDC File Format Selector on page 350 . The scanner issues a fast
warble beep and the LED turns green, signifying a successful parameter entry.
Other parameters require scanning several barcodes. See the parameter descriptions for this procedure.
Errors While Scanning
Unless otherwise specified, to correct an error during a scanning sequence, just re-scan the correct parameter.
Image Document Capture Parameter Defaults
lists defaults for IDC parameters. Change these values in one of two ways:
• Scan the appropriate barcodes in this chapter. The new value replaces the standard default value in memory. To recall default parameter values, see
.
• Configure the scanner using the 123Scan
configuration program. See 123Scan and Software Tools .
NOTE : See
Parameter Defaults for all user preference, host, symbology, and miscellaneous default
parameters.
Alternatively, use the sample application to set parameters using the parameter name. The application provides prompts and error checking to assist in setting the parameters correctly and easily. You must use an application to
set a parameter to a negative value, as the IDC X Coordinate can require.

Start the sample application and select the scanner in the SNAPI Scanners drop-down menu.
Set parameters as specified in
IDC Demonstrations on page 359
using the sample application or by scanning parameter barcodes in this guide. The barcode in the sample form is Code 128, which is enabled by default for decoding and as a Document Capture symbology. You can change these settings for your IDC application.
Perform each demo. When scanning, aim the scanner at the barcode in the center of the rectangle. Pull the scanner back so the rectangle is fully contained in the aiming pattern. When you pull the trigger, the scanner emits a low tone to indicate that the IDC firmware identified and captured an image, then a decode beep to indicate that the data transmitted. There may be several seconds between the two beeps, depending on the size of the captured image and options selected (de-skew, brighten, etc). You can move the scanner after the first beep, but continue the hold the trigger or the scanner may end the session before sending the data.

• Set
IDC Y Coordinate on page 348 to

• Pull the trigger. The scanner decodes the barcode and captures an image of the text scroll.
• Rotate the form clockwise so the word Capture is along the bottom edge, and pull the trigger. The scanner decodes the barcode and captures the same image, including orientation. (This example also works with the form rotated counter-clockwise or upside down).
• Modify the values for height, width, x, and y. Pull the trigger. The captured area changes in size and location.
• Cover the barcode with a small piece of paper (or your finger) and pull the trigger. The scanner does not decode the barcode or capture an image.
What This Demonstrates
Anchored mode captures an image of fixed size and location relative to a barcode on the page. Parameters control the height, width, and location. The IDC firmware requires that a barcode is present in order to capture an image. It decodes the barcode and uses it to adjust the image to the upright orientation.
Free-Form Mode Demo
• Set
IDC Operating Mode on page 345 to
Free-Form .
• Pull the trigger. The scanner decodes the barcode and captures an image of the entire rectangle, including the contents.
• Modify the values for height, width, x, and y. Pull the trigger. Note that the captured image is not affected.
• Rotate the form clockwise so the word Capture is along the bottom edge, and pull the trigger. The scanner decodes the barcode and captures the same image, including orientation. (This example also works with the form rotated counterclockwise or upside down).
• Cover the barcode with a small piece of paper and pull the trigger. The scanner does not decode the barcode and does not re-orient the captured image to the normal position, i.e., with the logo in the upper-left corner.
What This Demonstrates
Free-Form mode captures an image where a rectangular border on the page determines the size and position. It adjusts the image to the upright orientation if a barcode is found and decoded in the image.

Data Formatting: ADF,
MDF, Preferred Symbol
Introduction
This chapter briefly describes the Zebra features available for customizing scanner operation.
Advanced Data Formatting (ADF)
Advanced Data Formatting (ADF) allows customizing data before transmission to the host device. Use ADF to edit scanned data to suit the host application's requirements. With ADF you scan one barcode per trigger pull. ADF is programmed using 123Scan.
For a video on Creating an Advanced Data Formatting (ADF) Rule using 123Scan, go to: zebra.com/ScannerHowToVideos.
For additional information, refer to the Advanced Data Formatting Programmer Guide.
Multicode Data Formatting (Hand-held Mode Only)
Multicode Data Formatting (MDF) enables a 2D scanner to scan all barcodes on a label with a single trigger pull, and then modify and transmit the data to meet host application requirements. MDF supports programming up to nine unique labels into one scanner. MDF also supports scanning multiple barcodes on opposite sides of a box by holding the trigger.
MDF options include:
• Output all or specific barcodes.
• Control the barcode output sequence.
• Apply unique multicode data formatting (MDF) to each output barcode.
• Discard scanned data if all required barcodes are not present.
363
Data Formatting: ADF, MDF, Preferred Symbol
Programming a Scanner
• Using 123Scan, programming an MDF is similar to programming an ADF rule. MDF programming is saved in a 123Scan configuration file.
• MDF can be deployed to a fleet of 2D scanners using the Scanner Management Service (SMS) through a traditional SMS package.
For more information, refer to the Multicode Data Formatting and Preferred Symbol User Guide, p/n MN-002895-xx.
For a video on Creating an Multicode Data Formatting (MDF) Rule using 123Scan, go to: zebra.com/ScannerHowToVideos .
MDF in Hands-Free Mode
MDF in a hands-free scanning mode may yield multiple unexpected and undesired outputs when a label (most likely on a complex label) passes through the scanner's field of view. This problem happens when the complex label’s barcodes can be matched by more than one group (for example, Group 1 represents all barcodes present and Group 2 represent some barcodes present).
NOTE : A similar problem can also occur in the hand-held trigger mode. If multiple MDF rules/groups exist and all the label is not in the field of view when pressing the trigger, the output may vary depending on which
MDF rules/groups match.
The problem is demonstrated in
and as follows:
1.
2.
As the label is moving through the field of view, it is first partially read (some of the barcodes in the field of view in Frame 2).
Then, the second decode occurs as it is fully read (all the barcodes in the field of view in Frame 3).
3.
This yields two different outputs (instead of the expected single output) from the presentation of a label. This problem is driven by a complex label inadvertently matching two different MDF rules/groups, thereby yielding two outputs.

MDF Best Practices
Suggestions to minimize the undesired multiple outputs during the MDF scanning in hands-free mode are as follows:
• Scan barcodes in a vertical orientation (see
Figure 22 Scanning Label in a Vertical Orientation
• When creating the MDF programming with multiple groups, the Group 1's pattern match should be the most complicated (hardest to match), which equals to the most number of barcodes and criteria. Then
Group 2, 3, and so on should be progressively matched more easily.
• When defining criteria, avoid enabling an output when the pattern is not matched. Set Output if NO pattern match set as Discard bar code
Figure 23 Figure Match Setting for Output
Discard bar code
365
Data Formatting: ADF, MDF, Preferred Symbol
• Select Discard barcode(s) NOT within the pattern match in the 123Scan MDF setting. For more details, select What is this? located next to this selection.
• To prevent double decodes of the same symbol, increase the Timeout Between Same Symbols setting.
See
Timeout Between Decodes, Same Symbol on page 77 for more details.
• Turn the scanner's aimer on to assist operators in scanning the barcode in a more consistent manner.
• Other reasons a label/barcode may not be decoded while in the field of view are as follows:
• The label out of focus (too close or too far away). See
Decode Ranges on page 44 for correct working
range.
• Specular reflection (reflection off a shiny surface).
• The label is presented at extreme angle to scanner.
Preferred Symbol
Preferred Symbol is a barcode prioritization technique that enables favored decoding of high priority barcode(s).
The Preferred Symbol is the only barcode that is decoded and output within the preset Preferred Symbol Timeout.
During this time, the scanner attempts to decode the prioritized barcode and reports only this barcode.
For more information, refer to the Multicode Data Formatting and Preferred Symbol User Guide, p/n MN-002895-xx.
To program Preferred Symbol via 123Scan, select 123Scan > Configuration Wizard > Symbologies screen, and then select Preferred Symbol from the drop-down menu. Preferred Symbol programming is saved in the 123Scan configuration file.
Data Parsing (UDI Scan+, Label Parse+ and Blood Bag Parse+)
Data Parsing allows a Zebra scanner to scan a UDI label, GS1 label, or Blood Bags with one or more barcodes encoded with multiple data fields (such as date of manufacture, expiration date, batch number, GTIN, and SSCC) and transmit select data fields and not others, in a specific order to a host application. Simply wave the scanner over all the barcodes while holding the trigger and the scanner takes care of the rest.
The scanner finds and transmits only the required data fields, even if they are spread across multiple barcodes and on different sides of the container. In addition, the scanner can insert field separators (such as tab, enter, and slash) to automate data entry into a host application.
Programming your scanner is easy using 123Scan’s intuitive drag and drop interface. For more information on writing a Data Parsing Rule, refer to the Data Parsing (UDI, GS1 Label, Blood Bag) on Zebra Scanners User Guide available at: zebra.com/support .

Scan a UDI Label using UDI Scan+
Government regulatory agencies 1 establish Unique Device Identification (UDI) standards to identify and monitor the distribution and use of medical devices within healthcare environments. These UDI standards identify medical devices from manufacturing through distribution to patient use - enabling complete traceability of the millions of individual medical devices utilized for patient care. To enable UDI compliance, all medical devices must carry a
UDI label to enable “track and trace” from the point of production, during shipment, through the product’s use and disposal.
NOTE : 1 United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA), European Commission, International
Medical Device Regulatory Forum .
Scan a GS1 Label using Label Parse+
The GS1 Organization, an international standards body, has released specifications used worldwide for generating shipping labels. These labels are used when shipping packages (logistics), raw materials and produce.
Scan a Blood Bag Label using Blood Bag Parse+
The ICCBBA Organization, an international standards body, has released a specification used worldwide for generating blood bag labels. These labels are used when shipping, storing and using blood bags. For more information, go to: iccbba.org/tech-library/iccbba-documents/standards-documents/standard-labeling-blood2 .

Driver’s License Set Up
(DS9908-DL/HL)
Introduction
The scanner uses internally embedded algorithms to parse out barcode information from standard US driver's licenses and certain other American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators (AAMVA) compliant ID cards.
Scanning these barcodes produces formatted data for use in age verification, credit card application information, and more.
This chapter describes how to program the scanner to read and use the data contained in the 2D barcodes on US driver's licenses and AAMVA compliant ID cards.

Custom Tone
Introduction
The imager supports downloading a custom tone to sound when a good decode occurs. Create the audio tone according to the following specifications:
• Use a WAV audio file format; acceptable file extensions are .wav and .wave.
• Encode the audio file at 16 samples per second, i.e., 16 kHz sampling rate.
• Encode the audio file at 16 bits per sample.
• Encode the audio file with a single channel (mono).
• WAVE audio type/format = PCM (Pulse Coded Modulation).
• Ensure the audio file does not exceed 65 kBytes.
• Ensure the audio file name does not exceed 31 bytes.

ASCII Character Sets
Introduction
NOTE : For the Keyboard Wedge Interface, Code 39 Full ASCII interprets the barcode special character ($ + %
/) preceding a Code 39 character and assigns an ASCII character value to the pair. For example, if you enable Code 39 Full ASCII and scan +B , it transmits as b , %J as ?
, and %V as @ .
Scanning ABC%I outputs the keystroke equivalent of ABC >.

Signature Capture
Introduction
CapCode, a signature capture code, is a special pattern that encloses a signature area on a document and allows a scanner to capture a signature.
There are several accepted patterns that allow automatic identification of different signatures on the same form.
For example, on the federal tax return 1040 form there are three signature areas, one each for two joint filers, and one for a professional preparer. By using different patterns, a program can correctly identify all three, so they can be captured in any sequence and still be identified correctly.
Code Structure
Signature Capture Area
A CapCode is printed as two identical patterns on either side of a signature capture box, as shown in
.
Each pattern extends the full height of the signature capture box.
The box is optional, so you can omit it, replace it with a single baseline, or print a baseline with an "X" on top of it towards the left, as is customarily done in the US to indicate a request for signature. However, if an "X" or other markings are added in the signature box area, these are captured with the signature.
Figure 33 CapCode
509
Signature Capture
CapCode Pattern Structure
A CapCode pattern structure consists of a start pattern followed by a separator space, a signature capture box, a second separator space, and then a stop pattern. Assuming that X is the dimension of the thinnest element, the start and stop patterns each contains 9X total width in 4 bars and 3 spaces. A 7X quiet zone is required to the left and to the right of the CapCode pattern.
Figure 34 CapCode Structure
Capture Box
Quiet
Zone
Start
Separator Spaces
Stop Quiet
Zone
The separator spaces on either side of the signature capture box can be between 1X and 3X wide.
Start / Stop Patterns
lists the accepted start / stop patterns. The bar and space widths are expressed as multiples of X. You must use the same pattern on either side of a signature capture box. The type value is reported with the captured signature to indicate the purpose of the signature captured.

Dimensions
The size of the signature capture box is determined by the height and separation of the start and stop patterns. The line width of the signature capture box is insignificant.
The thinnest element width, referred to here as X, is nominally 10 mils (1 mil = 0.0254 mm). Select this as an exact multiple of the pixel pitch of the printer used. For example, when using a 203 DPI (dots-per-inch) printer and printing 2 dots per module, the resulting X dimension is 9.85 mils.
Data Format
inhibit barcode type. Selecting "Symbol ID" as the barcode type for output identifies the CapCode with letter "i".

Signature Capture
Additional Capabilities
Regardless of how the signature is captured, the output signature image is de-skewed and right-side up.
A scanner that captures signatures automatically determines whether it is scanning a signature or a barcode. You can disable the signature capturing capability in a decoder.

Introduction
IMPORTANT : Decodes times are only reported for barcodes decoded in hand-held mode.
This chapter describes the Zebra ScanSpeed Analytics software that allows the identification of barcodes that slow down processes. Over time, the collected data can be used to eliminate poor performing barcodes from inventory.
When scanners capture and read data faster, processes run faster.
For more information go to zebra.com/scanspeedanalytics .
Histogram Decode Information
information: Decode Count; Minimum Decode Time; Slowest Decode Time; Average Decode Time; Slowest
Decode Data; and, ScanSpeed Histogram.
ScanSpeed Histogram is an array of eight items of double WORD (4 bytes). Each bin holds the count of decoded barcodes per range of decode time. For example, the range of Bin1 decode times is from 0 ms to 75 ms. All the Bin time ranges are show below:
Bin1 <= 75ms
Bin2 <= 110ms
Bin3 <= 170ms
Bin4 <= 300ms
Bin5 <= 600ms
Bin6 <= 1000ms
Bin7 <= 1500ms
Bin8 > 1500ms
123Scan displays this histogram data in its Statistics tab shown in
